[ Today on your omnicom: a slightly baffled looking Sam, sitting cross-legged on one of the common area couches with a soda and half a bowl of popcorn. ]

'K, so.

Remember how Chief went back home for like two minutes, but got back here months later?

I guess it works both ways, because I was definitely back for a while but I'm like 95% this is the same splatterball game I was watching right before I went.

[ He stops to eat a handful of the popcorn, and - ]

- wow, yeah, this stuff didn't even have time to get cold.

So, you know. In case anybody was wondering.


(ooc: it'ssss a canon update. Sam's about current now, up to right before Champions starts - which means that if you're avoiding Civil War II spoilers, give me a holler and I'll make sure not to tag you with any!)

Enh, everyone always goes back. The Avengers are like Clive Davis. Sure, he's a dick, but he's a dick that makes you a star.

There's no hard feelings. Not against you, anyway. You're not the one who has to constantly build metaphoric symbols of your epeen all over Manhattan. That's all the Avengers are.

Being a star isn't the point. Doing something worth doing is.

[ Robbie can't bring himself to give the snappy retorts that he comes up with. "Tell that to Wonder Man." "Remember that out next time Stark throws another gala."

He doesn't have the right to agree. He always wanted to be a famous superhero. He even took the first name that the newspaper graced him with, and then there was the stupid show... ]

You think I don't know that, now?

Uh, no? I'm just saying, I'm not going back.

Getting in fights with other heroes is stupid and it's not gonna find my dad.

[walkingballpit]

When we get back, I'm going to help you find him.

[ Robbie's not sure why they haven't already. Looking for missing Warriors' relatives has been a Thing since the beginning. They owe Sam that much. ]

I just hope I remember when I do go back.

Thanks.

[ Maybe the third time will be the charm. ]
